Report Reveals 4 Million Premature Deaths from Nuclear Testing

Report Reveals 4 Million Premature Deaths from Nuclear Testing

A new report says that nuclear weapons testing from 1945 to 2017 has caused at least 4 million people to die earlier than they should have.

This happened because of diseases like cancer, which were caused by the radiation from the tests.

Nine countries have nuclear weapons, and the tests were done in 15 different countries.

The report says that the effects of these tests are still being felt today, and many people are still getting sick because of them.

The report also says that every person alive today has some radiation from these tests in their bones.

Experts are worried because the risks from this radiation are much greater than we thought before.

They hope that this report will help stop more nuclear testing in the future.
